Take a music bath one or twice a week for a few seasons, and you will find that it is to the soul what the water-bath is to the body......

Take Back the City

Snow Patrol is classified as a North Irish rock band….

Take back the city for yourself tonightOr I’ll take back the city for meTake back the city for yourself tonightWhoa

God knows you put your life into it’s handsAnd it’s both cradled you and crushedBut now it’s time to make your own demandsWhoa

All these years later and it’s killing meYour broken records in wordsTen thousand craters where it all should beWhoa

No need to put your words into my mouthDon’t need convincing at allI love this place enough to know i have no doubtsWhoa

It’s a mess, it’s a startIt’s a flowing work of artYour city, your a callEvery crack, every wallPick a side, pick a fightGet your epitaph rightYou can sing, ’til you drop‘Cause the fun just never stops

I love this city tonightI love this city alwaysIt bears it’s teeth like a lightAnd spits me out after day’sBut we’re all gluttons for itWe know what’s wrong and it’s rightFor every time it’s been hit

Take back the city tonightTell me you never wanted more than thisAnd I will stop talking nowOne perfect partner, one eternal kissWhoa

Take back the city for yourself tonightOr I’ll take back the city for meTake back the city for yourself tonightWhoa

It’s a mess, it’s a startIt’s a flowing work of artYour city, your callEvery crack, every wallPick a side, pick a fightGet your epitaph rightYou can sing, ’til you drop‘Cause the fun just never stops

I love this city tonightI love this city alwaysIt bears it’s teeth like a lightAnd spits me out after day’sBut we’re all gluttons for itWe know what’s wrong and it’s rightFor every time it’s been hit

Take back the city tonightI love this city tonightI love this city alwaysIt bears it’s teeth like a lightAnd spits me out after day’sBut we’re all gluttons for itWe know what’s wrong and it’s rightFor every time it’s been hitTake back the city tonight
